I basically applied a clear protective finish on it. A few coats on both sides. Should I go a little extra and apply an undercoating to the bottom of it? For a little extra protection and sound deadening. Attach file:   (225.81 KB) Posted on: 2020/10/7 2:37

I would make sure the edges are well impregnated with finish. The cross-grain on the edge is where the piece is most vulnerable. Posted on: 2020/10/7 7:08

Agree with ensuring the edges are treated. Any sound deadening can go above the plywood, under either your new rubber floor mat (Don Lampen reproduces) or carpet. Posted on: 2020/10/7 7:27

My inadequate searching skills didn't return much for Don Lampen and reproduction mats. Posted on: 2020/10/7 8:54
